Hi, We have a scenario where we have an identity that has two Authoritative Source accounts attach to them, due to customer process we need to create a correlation rule for he Authoritative Source, since the user has two accounts attached IDN only takes into account the manager correlation of the oldest account. There is a way to change this behavior? Can IDN take into account only active accounts to calculate the manager? Regards ---

To achieve this you need to prioritize your Authoritative source Identity Profiles appropriately. The manager attribute would reflect from the source that has a higher priority in Identity Profile. If that doesn’t help, you can look into using a Manager Correlation Rule for this. ---

Hum, we already have the IdentityProfile in the highest priority, but the user have two accounts from the same source. ---

Well in that case you can try applying a transform on manager attribute. Within transform you can include logic to pick the active account based on account attributes. ---

Sharvari, We try that as well, but I think that the manager attribute is related to the Manager Correlation, I think the manager attribute in the IdentityProfile are not taking into account to correlate the manager. ---

Just to give an Update, We solve the problem by creating a **[filterString](https://community.sailpoint.com/t5/IdentityNow-Wiki/IdentityNow-Account-Filtering-during-Account-Aggregation/ta-p/142873)** to exclude accounts disabled for a long time, since we have only the newest account correlated to the Identity the Manager attribute was fixed. But probably if you guys do not have a way to do that, the Manager Correlation rule will be de only solution. ---
